Hi, it probably wouldn't hurt to change the electrolytic capacitors on the PCB and check the diodes which are connected across the incoming line (A and B legs) which are there to provide polarity reversal protection (they are basically a bridge rectifier with the A and B legs of the line connected to what would be the AC side of the bridge) one or more of these could have gone short circuit
